2. OUR FUNDAMENTAL VALUES What are values? They are the principles that guide our behaviours. We all have our own values by which we are guided every day. In our Group, our common basis of fundamental values makes us an integral part of our Company.

All our behaviours should always be guided by these values!

Our fundamental values

Integrity and honesty

Responsibility and awareness

Passion

Integrity and honesty can be seen in great choices, but also in daily actions. They are associated with being compliant with rules, but not only, as this in itself is not sufficient.

In fact, they also have to do with sincere, loyal and transparent behaviours that make you feel in peace with yourself, also when no one is watching you. They are at the basis of fair actions and of a clear and consistent communication.

It is the awareness of our role toward our Customers, our colleagues and the countries in which we operate. We are aware of thesafety and value of our Customers, our People, our means and infrastructure, of the environment and of the communities in which we operate.

We are passionate about our work, even if we know how tiring and demanding it is.

We aim at excellence, at doing our best and at improving over time.

This makes us the Group’s best ambassadors at all times.

If you have any doubts, ask yourself: Is this behaviour legal? Is it ethical? What would people think about this behaviour?

If you have any doubts, ask yourself: If it were “mine,” would I act in the same way?

Am I guaranteeing the utmost safety to myself and to those around me?

If you have any doubts, ask yourself: What could I have done better? How can I improve for the next time? What image am I giving of my Company?

Courage and self-criticism

Openmindedness and respect

Teamwork

All great innovations originate from the courage to change and the ability to integrate diversities. Our actions are always aimed at innovation, we accept ideas different from ours and we transform mistakes in opportunities to grow and improve.

To be openminded and respectful means to consider diversities as a resource, to welcome them as a stimulus for sparking creativity and an opportunity to understand those around us, be they colleagues, customers or any other person. They are values at the basis of fairness and merit recognition

We belong to a team capable of facing great challenges by working together in a coherent and integrated manner. To be a team also means to collaborate in a climate of openmindedness based on constructive participation and feedback for our mutual well-being.

If you have any doubts, ask yourself: Am I giving to those around me the possibility to dare? Am I accepting change as a positive challenge?

If you have any doubts, ask yourself: Would I be happy if I were treated in the same way? Would I feel accepted? Am I being respectful toward other people’s ideas? Am I fair?

If you have any doubts, ask yourself: Am I putting my knowledge at the team’s disposal? Am I collaborating with openness?

No violations of the values and contents laid down in the Code of Ethics will be tolerated, and its compliance and practical implementation will be supervised through ad hoc organizational tools capable of preventing said violations.

The conviction of acting in favour or in the interest of our Company or of the Group shall not justify in any way the adoption of illegal behaviours or of behaviours in contrast with the values and contents of the Code.

The Code is integral part of the Internal Control and Risk Management System, of the 231 Model and of all the models for preventing crimes adopted by the Group’s Companies.

The Internal Control and Risk Management System

The 231 Model

The Internal Control and Risk Management System is made up by the set of rules, procedures and organizational structures aimed at enabling the identification, measuring, management and monitoring of the main corporate risks.

The 231 Model is the internal control system adopted by each Company to prevent the risk of crimes being committed by subjects working within the Company or on its behalf (Management, Employees, Collaborators, etc.), or operating in the Company’s interest or for its benefit.

The aim of the System is to contribute toward a conduction of the enterprise consistent with the corporate goals; it favours conscious decisions, it safeguards the corporate assets, and assures efficient and legal processes and reliable information.

Code of Ethics - Ferrovie dello Stato Italiane Group

The adoption and effective implementation of the 231 Model is the essential condition for excluding the Companies’ administrative liability pursuant to Lgs.D. 231/2001.

4. TO WHOM IS THE CODE ADDRESSED? The Code of Ethics is addressed to the members of the Corporate Bodies of the Group’s Companies, to the Management, to the Personnel and to all those who, directly or indirectly, permanently or temporarily, establish relationships and relations with the Group’s Companies.

All of us, starting from the members of the Corporate Bodies, the Management, the Personnel and whoever collaborates with the Group, undertake to be correct and transparent in our behaviours.

Recipients The corporate bodies Firstly, it is up to the Corporate Bodies to put into practice the values and standards of behaviour present in the Code. In particular, the Administrators of each of the Group’s Companies must be guided by the values and the contents laid down in the Code when setting entrepreneurial goals, proposing and realizing projects and investments, and when making decisions or carrying out actions that affect the Company’s managerial, asset and technological aspects; the quality of the service offered to Customers; the Stakeholders’ profit; the well-being of Employees and the community; the environment and the future generations.

The Management At the same time, the Management must be guided by the values expressed in the Code when executing its functions internally - thus developing trust, cohesion and a spirit of mutual collaboration - and in its relations with third parties.

Managers must put into practice the values laid down in the Code fostering, through their personal behaviour, the awareness that to act ethically is a binding element for our Group. Managers must constantly supervise their collaborators’ compliance with said values.

People of the Group We are all required to apply the Code, to suggest possible improvements and to report any violations: we must be fully acquainted with the rules laid down in the Code and, consequently conform all our actions and behaviours to the values and contents expressed therein.

Contractual Value and Sanctions

The contractual value of the Code for the Personnel

The value of the Code for Third Parties

Compliance with the rules laid down in the Code is an essential part of the contractual obligations referring to all the People of the Group pursuant to Art. 2014 C.c., according to which “The Personnel must use the diligence required depending on the nature of the work to be carried out, the Company’s interests and the higher interest of national production.

In our relations with Third Parties, on the basis of our relevant responsibilities, we must all:

The Personnel must also comply with the rules and regulations concerning the execution and discipline of their work, as established by the Entrepreneur and relevant Collaborators to whom the Personnel is hierarchically subject.” The Code of Ethics is integral part of the individual employment relationship.

Each of the Group’s Companies shall evaluate, from a disciplinary viewpoint pursuant to the applicable laws, possible behaviours opposed to the principles laid down in the Code of Ethics. They shall consequently impose sanctions, within the Entrepreneur’s power of execution, on the basis of the different levels of seriousness of the facts identified, also intervening for damage compensation

Code of Ethics - Ferrovie dello Stato Italiane Group

• provide due information concerning the commitments and obligations imposed by the Code; • require compliance with the obligations that concern the direct involvement of Third Parties; • implement proper initiatives in case of Third Parties’ non-compliance.

Therefore, the contracts entered into by the Group’s Companies must provide for the contractual counterparty’s acceptance of the principles laid down in the Code of Ethics, without prejudice to the mandatory regulations applicable to the contract.

The violation of the principles provided for by the Code of Ethics by Third Parties (Suppliers, Business Partners, Auditors, Consultants and other Third Parties in business relations) shall constitute non-compliance with the contractual obligations. This shall entail all the consequences of law as to the Group’s Companies right to obtain total compensation of any damage undergone and caused due to said violation and as to the right to rescind the contract due to and by fault of the non-complying party.

5. OUR COMMITMENT TOWARD STAKEHOLDERS In order to contribute toward a truly sustainable development in the economic, social and environmental scopes of action, we must analyze carefully the context in which we operate, identifying our Stakeholders and taking into consideration their expectations in our corporate decisional processes.

In fact, our activities must create value, pursuing the best balance among the various legitimate needs.

The FS Group participates in the United Nations’ Global Compact Programme, a voluntary initiative based on a shared set of fundamental principles – related to human rights, labour standards, environmental protection and fight against corruption – that foster the values of sustainability.

To this end, the Group undertakes to inform its Stakeholders on the activities implemented and on the goals achieved, to monitor the progress of the sustainability goals and to make all results public, creating a path for continuous improvement.

The standards described below are those which our Personnel must implement in their relations with all the Stakeholders with whom the Group relates the most and, more in general, in their relations with all the subjects with whom they interact.

We reject and deter all forms of corruption In the awareness that our actions, based on legality and honesty, affect the goals and reputation of the single Companies and of the Group, generating value, we reject and deter all forms of corruption, at all levels, both in Italy and abroad.

We all undertake not to give or promise, accept or ask for gifts or forms of hospitality, for ourselves or for others, having characteristics opposed to those described above.

To this end, our behaviours are guided by the respect of the Law and the dissemination of a culture based on the principles of integrity and transparency, also collaborating actively in preventing any act or behaviour opposed to said principles.

5.2 Relations with Customers

5.2 Relations with Customers Customers represent a primary resource for the Group’s success. Therefore, our actions, in all their forms, are constantly and solidly guided by the principle of customer centricity.

We are concentrated on the quality of our service and on listening to our Customers We organize our behaviours in such a way to optimize the Customers’ experience, paying exceptional attention both to the quality of the service offered and to that actually perceived, and make sure, at all times, that our actions meet their expectations. To achieve said goals we undertake, in every circumstance, to put the utmost effort in knowing and identifying the Customers’ needs.

From this viewpoint, it is absolutely relevant, on the one hand, to foster the systematic use of instruments capable of identifying and analyzing customer satisfaction centred on the best methodologies available. On the other hand, it is fundamental to organize our offer on the basis of criteria that enhance the principle of integration, guiding customers toward innovative intermodal and multi-service solutions. Our conduct, and in particular that of our front line personnel, must always be based on the utmost fairness, availability, courtesy, efficiency, as well as on the soundness of the information communicated. We must try to transmit, in every circumstance, a message of high reliability and professionalism.

Our behaviours must be considerate and respectful of all forms of diversities. Any behaviours even only partially interpretable as discriminating are intolerable

We respect Consumers’ rights The Group undertakes to respect Consumers’ rights, and in particular: to provide, through each Company’s official communication channels, clear, correct and exhaustive information on the range of services offered; to keep to the truth in our advertisements, so as to enable Customers/Consumers to make conscious commercial decisions; to comply with the obligations pro2 vided for by the regulations of reference.

5.3 Relations with Shareholders and the Market The main commitment that we want to keep toward Shareholders and the Market - categories that include public and private Stakeholders as well as institutional and private investors - is to create “value” in the broadest meaning, inclusive not only of the economic and financial dimension, but also of the social and environmental one. The aim is to build a development system capable of being sustainable in the medium-long term.

We are guided by the highest standards of transparency and fairness In managing the enterprise, we adopt a Corporate Governance guided by the highest standards of transparency and fairness. This system of corporate governance is compliant with what provided for by the law and by the regulations of reference, and results to be aligned to the market’s best practices.

Our system of corporate governance, besides constituting an indispensable instrument for corporate management and control, represents a competitive factor of growing relevance in maximizing the Group’s value.

When managing any activity, we do not make decisions and carry out activities in conflict with the interests of the Group’s Companies, nor do we carry out activities incompatible with our duties. It is our responsibility to report, according to the applicable procedures, any situations in contrast with what mentioned above.

We foster a communication

clear

and

direct

A clear and direct communication among People of the Group and with our interlocutors is at the basis of effective job relationships. In this view, the Management’s role is crucial in organizing meetings and encounters to keep teams updated on relevant business strategies, long-term goals and short-term priorities. All this is necessary in order to carry out activities with a clear overall view.

The Group, therefore, provides in a timely manner information on corporate activities through its internal communication channels. Moreover, it fosters a direct dialogue between managers and their teams through specially devoted training courses.

We acknowledge diversities

and

enhance

The Group considers diversities as a value to acknowledge and strengthen. We undertake to welcome diversities as an added value creating open and inclusive work environments.

We consider the acknowledgement and the fostering of each individual’s diversities a source for the Group’s organizational well-being and competitive advantage. In fact, we deem the enhancement of diversities: a source to provide innovation and creativity; a means to relate with Customers and understand the market; a condition to attract and enhance talents; an opportunity to protect and develop the corporate know how.

For these reasons, we make sure that all decisions concerning recruitment, selection, employment, access to training, career development and advancement, compensation, are founded on merit and abilities and are free from any type of discrimination.

We enhance competences and corporate know how

Our Group guarantees fairness and equal opportunities to all the subjects involved in the phases of recruitment, selection and employment, access to training, career development and advancement, compensation. The Group assesses individual performances keeping into account not only “what” goals were achieved, but also “how” they were achieved, rewarding integrity, passion and the ability to innovate. The management of performances is a fundamental aspect of the relation between managers and their teams of reference, accomplished through periodic and constructive feedback.

We adopt suitable measures to avoid nepotisms, favouritisms or forms of patronage. In order to avoid partiality, any hierarchical relations between relatives or cohabiting persons are considered inappropriate.

Our know-how, in particular the technical know-how of our businesses of reference, is rare and precious and thus it is to be acknowledged, safeguarded and disseminated. The Group undertakes to take care of and enhance its People, fostering their human and professional development by creating initiatives capable of developing skills and competences in line with the bents and talents of each single person. In this view, training assumes a fundamental role in all its aspects, as a lever of development of each one’s professional value. All of us, however, have the duty to transfer our know how to colleagues, fostering the diffusion of knowledge and accompanying, especially the younger ones, in the development of their experiences. The value of sharing personal information and knowledge should be at the basis of everybody’s behaviours.

We create respectful and collaborative work environments and repress all forms of harassment We believe in the strength of an effective collaboration among People. In fact, we are aware that an enterprise’s success is based not only on individual value, but also on great teamwork which must be characterized by the sharing of intents, loyalty, respect and strong cohesion. Our Group protects its People from acts of psychological violence, and it fights against any attitude or behaviour which may be discriminatory or damaging for People, their firm beliefs and preferences.

Harassments Harassments can assume various forms: sometimes they can be explicit and evident, other times they can be more devious and hidden.

Several examples of behaviours definable as harassments are as follows: unwanted advances; exposure to or diffusion of (also through social networks) offensive material or related to other people’s private lives (e.g. photos and videos); insults, intimidations through aggressive acts or words, disparaging jokes or inappropriate acts; unpleasant physical or verbal behaviours (also with reference to nationality, ethnic group, origins, religion, age, gender, sexual orientation, marital status or disabilities); abuse of power or authority; any type of violence in the workplace.

SIf you are a victim of harassment, or you witnessed a violent or discriminatory behaviour, speak to your person of reference of the Human Resources Office or Ethics Committee.

Several examples, by no means exhaustive, of potential conflicts of interest are as follows: to have economic and financial interests (owner or shareholder), directly or through our families, in Suppliers, Customers* and Competitors; to use one’s position in the Company or the information collected through one’s work in such a way to create a conflict between personal interests and corporate interests; to carry out work activities, with directive or managerial responsibilities, at the premises of Customers,* Suppliers, Competitors; to purchase or sell financial instruments of the Group’s Companies or external Companies when, on the basis of the functions carried out, one is possession of price sensitive information not of public dominion. *with the exclusion of customers in the exclusive sense of users of the passenger transportation.

If we should find ourselves in situations of potential conflict of interest or come to know about such situations, it is our responsibility to inform our Managers or the Company’s Ethics Committee immediately so that they may decide if said conflict actually exists. They shall also provide suggestions or indications on the correct actions to undertake in the respect of the applicable procedures.
